Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gcalctool

Binary package hint: gcalctool

My distribution is:
DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu
DISTRIB_RELEASE=9.04
DISTRIB_CODENAME=jaunty
DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 9.04"

The packet with problem is:
$ dpkg -l | grep -i gcalctool
ii  gcalctool  5.26.0-0ubuntu1 - A GTK2 desktop calculator

When I perform some operation with the 'modulus' division (%), I often
obtain wrong results.

Here, I give an example:

"2^1000 Mod 3" returns an 86-digit result!!
Obviously, it is not the correct answer (the result must be: 0<=result<=2)
